Ever had a really tough time of things and just wish you had someone special in your life you could rely on?
Ben’s father has just passed away and his entire family needs him to be strong for them. If only Ben had someone who could be strong for him.
Kurt is determined to be that someone. He’s never met Ben, but he knows from chatting with him online that he likes him enough to turn up on his doorstep offering moral support.
Kurt’s presence is a blessing. He’s kind, helpful, and devilishly attractive. Just what Ben needs to take his mind off things—especially when it comes to the hot sex. But can an attraction that springs to life when one partner is emotionally vulnerable be about something more?

Hania, studentka ostatniego roku, otrzymuje pismo od notariusza, informujące, że jest współspadkobierczynią starego dworku na ziemi warmińsko-mazurskiej. Przekonana, że dom, który odziedziczyła po nieznanym do tej pory ojcu jest tylko starą ruderą, jedzie na rekonesans. Po przybyciu na miejsce odkrywa jednak, że dom jest zamieszkały. Przebywają w nim przyjaciele jej zmarłego ojca, których on, dosłownie „pozbierał” z ulicy. Hania zaprzyjaźnia się z mieszkańcami domu ojca i poznaje historie ich życia. Z każdym dniem czuje się bardziej związana z ludźmi, którzy dla jej ojca, starego marynarza, byli kimś więcej niż rodzina.
Niestety współwłaścicielem domu jest również jej przyrodni brat Marcel, na stałe mieszkający na terenie Francji, którego dziewczyna nie zdążyła jeszcze poznać osobiście. Odnaleziony przez notariusza kilka miesięcy później, nie waha się sprzedać domu po ojcu, bogatemu inwestorowi francuskiemu. Hania postanawia razem z grupą swoich nowych przyjaciół walczyć o dworek.
Historii przyjaźni córki zmarłego marynarza z jego pseudo rodziną towarzyszy wilk, którego dziewczyna poznaje w dość osobliwym momencie pobytu.

L’agricoltura globale si trova di fronte a sfide del tutto nuove. Le falde idriche calano, le rese cerealicole hanno raggiunto il loro limite, le temperature globali aumentano e l’erosione dei suoli continua ad aggravarsi. Nutrire la popolazione mondiale, che cresce ogni anno di 80 milioni di individui, diventa sempre più difficile.E allora le nazioni che possono permetterselo corrono all’estero ad accaparrarsi terre coltivabili e annesse risorse idriche. Il land grabbing rappresenta un fenomeno nuovo all’interno della geopolitica della scarsità alimentare, in cui il cibo ha assunto la stessa importanza del petrolio e il terreno agricolo è prezioso come l’oro.Le ricadute in termini di prezzi mondiali del cibo sono sotto gli occhi di tutti. Cosa accadrà con il prossimo aumento dei prezzi? Se la contrazione dei consumi alimentari, spinta dalla crisi, è una novità per molti di noi, per molti altri non sono più possibili ulteriori sacrifici. Il cibo è l’anello debole della nostra società e rischia quindi di diventare un importante fattore di instabilità politica.

Her father’s worst enemy...
Top chef Gabriel Delange never forgave his old nemesis Pierre Manon for all the other chef had cost him.
One stolen rose...
And he most certainly couldn’t stand the sight of his own most famous dessert, the legendary Rose, claimed as Pierre’s own on the cover of his new cookbook.
A substitute victim...
But even Gabriel could hardly go through with a lawsuit when he learned the older chef had just had a stroke. Especially not when Pierre had one very cute daughter willing to be Gabriel’s victim instead.
Jolie Manon...
As a child, Jo had seen her family torn apart by her top chef father’s obsession with his work. She had given years of her own adult life to trying to pull him out of depression, after he lost a star. Now a food writer, she might be fascinated with a chef’s work, but she knew how to guard her heart. She would never allow another chef into her life.
Unless he blackmailed her into it...
Welcome to the heat and sun of Provence, where jasmine and roses climb up old colored walls, where fountains play in ancient stone villages, and where even a beast can prove he is a prince at heart…

Handbook of Neurological Sports Medicine: Concussion and Other Nervous System Injuries in the Athlete
|
["Anthony L. Petraglia"]
| 0 | 0 | null |
"Handbook of Neurological Sports Medicine: Concussion and Other Nervous System Injuries in the Athlete" presents techniques for diagnosis and treatment of head-related injuries to enable medical professionals to provide the best care possible. Authored by a respected team of neurosurgeons, including highly regarded concussion researcher Julian Bailes, this evidence-based reference offers expert guidelines for managing these serious injuries.
A strong focus is placed on concussion due to the risk involved with this common injury. The text outlines how to recognize, assess, and treat concussions, preparing practitioners to calmly respond to athletes who are exhibiting signs of this dangerous condition. It also reviews the biomechanics and pathophysiology at the core of concussions to better understand their clinical presentations.
Critical return-to-play guidelines and participation recommendations for patients with preexisting neurological conditions or structural lesions arm medical professionals with the principles needed for making appropriate decisions for athletes' safety. The text explains the roles of pharmacological management, natural treatment approaches, rehabilitation strategies, and education. In addition, chapters provide coverage of postconcussion syndrome, subconcussion, and second-impact syndrome.
"Handbook of Neurological Sports Medicine" also takes a look at other traumatic injuries, including injuries to the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine, and the soft tissue and fascia within the spinal unit. It provides an overview of peripheral nervous system injuries to ensure medical professionals understand those serious and potentially career-ending issues, reviews facets of optimal response with suspected or proven spinal injury, and discusses the evaluation and management of athletes with non-concussion-related headaches and heat illness or heatstroke. The text includes additional features to address issues surrounding critical injuries:
- Guidance on developing an action plan for athletic events prepares first responders for emergency situations.
- A review of cases of interest provides examples of situations that can--and do--occur.
- Medicolegal considerations educate practitioners about negligence, standard of care, and proximate cause.
- More than 150 photos and illustrations offer visual support to further explain the injuries.
The evaluation and management of sport-related neurological injuries have matured at an unprecedented rate. "Handbook of Neurological Sports Medicine" is a critical resource for all who encounter and treat neurological injuries, providing the foundation for the clinical decisions that all athletic medical practitioners must make to give their patients the best treatment possible.

What Vica found this time took them on a whole new adventure and a new association with another fascinating dog and handler team.It Smells Like…Burnt Rope is a novelette length book and the second in the Canine Nosework Mini Mystery series by author C.

As an executive, you face enormous pressure every day to improve revenues, increase profitability, and enhance productivity whatever your business, industry or sector.
But when you try to implement strategies to meet your goals, you’re sometimes faced with even more pressures: developing existing talent, hiring new talent, and working toward effective execution that may raise questions related to your current team and leadership performance.
To alleviate these pressures, many leaders turn to the process of executive coaching for help.
But since there is no “official” voice for the executive coaching industry, this report describes 6 key “truths” about the process, offering some needed insight into this much-discussed, yet somewhat “mysterious” developmental process. We want to show you that executive coaching can be the most cost-effective solution to the challenges facing you and your organization.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti: 145 Pre-Raphaelite Paintings
|
["Daniel Ankele"]
| 4.1 | 10 | null |
DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI Art Book contains 145 professionally color corrected reproductions of Classical Portraits, Fantasy, Mythology and Religious Themes with annotations and introduction below. Book includes Chronological Table of Contents, Top 50 Museums of the World, and is formatted for all Kindle devices, Kindle for iOS and Android Tablets (use rotate and/or zoom feature on landscape/horizontal images for optimal viewing). Dante Gabriel Rossetti (12 May 1828 – 9 April 1882) was an English poet, illustrator, painter and translator. The son of émigré Italian scholar Gabriel Pasquale Giuseppe Rossetti and his wife Frances Polidori, D.G. Rossetti was born in London, England and originally named Gabriel Charles Dante Rossetti. His family and friends called him "Gabriel", but in publications he put the name Dante first (in honor of Dante Alighieri). He was the brother of poet Christina Rossetti, the critic William Michael Rossetti, and author Maria Francesca Rossetti, and was a founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood with John Everett Millais and William Holman Hunt. Like all his siblings, he aspired to be a poet and attended King's College School. However, he also wished to be a painter, having shown a great interest in Medieval Italian art. He studied at Henry Sass's Drawing Academy from 1841 to 1845 when he enrolled at the Antique School of the Royal Academy, leaving in 1848. After leaving the Royal Academy, Rossetti studied under Ford Madox Brown, with whom he was to retain a close relationship throughout his life.

Twenty-seven, rich and beautiful, Amber Knight is living everyone’s dream. Her music career is established, her acting career is taking off, and she has a lifestyle fit for the top of the A-List. So why has she started acting so strangely?
At least, that’s how it seems to Nick Belsey. A less celebrated resident of north London, Belsey’s decade-long career at Hampstead Criminal Investigative Department is coming to an abrupt end, but he still can’t seem to kick his habit of getting into serious trouble. When he’s asked by a desperate mother to help find her only son, Belsey has to infiltrate Amber’s glittering world. The seedy underside to her seemingly perfect life—a realm of excess, obsession, lust, and greed—doesn’t surprise him. What does is the blood trail that leads directly to Amber.

Making Headlines: A Taking Flight Novel

["Erin Brown"]
| 3.87 | 52 | 21 |
When a one-night stand turns into an online photo scandal, Sophie Tucker and Luke McGraw become campus celebrities overnight for all the wrong reasons.
Sophie Tucker can’t wait to start her freshman year of college—she has a full scholarship to her dream school and her sights set on landing a coveted staff writer position on the college newspaper. But when a scandalous photo from a one night stand she barely remembers is posted on The Score List, a new tabloid-style gossip site the campus is buzzing about, Sophie realizes her freshman year isn’t going to be what she imagined. As more photos are posted, Sophie decides to use her journalistic prowess to take down the anonymous person behind the site.
Luke McGraw is that guy—the vice president of his fraternity, the online editor of the school newspaper, and the one every girl wants to date. When a photo of Sophie, the girl he hooked up with the night before classes started and can’t get out of his head, shows up on The Score List, he knows that he has to find out who is behind the site—both to avenge Sophie, and to save the reputation of his fraternity.
When Sophie and Luke realize they’re both investigating, they decide to team up. But focusing on the investigation instead of each other proves difficult, especially when neither of them are sure the other can be trusted.
In a story full of the scandal, mystery, intrigue, friendship, and cheeky, sexy romance, Making Headlines channels Veronica Mars and Greek, in the companion novel to Taking Flight.

Time Runs Away With Her
|
["Christine Potter"]
| 4.61 | 18 | 5 |
I was a young adult in 1970s. All that good music and bad pot. I'm looking forward to this read. Here is the publisher's synopsis:
It's not easy being Bean. Bean Donohue lives for her guitar, but her mom threw her out of the house during a snowstorm for singing. No way she's going to get permission to go see The Grateful Dead at the Fillmore East.
Zak, her almost-boyfriend, will get drafted if he doesn't get into art school, pot makes Bean paranoid, and her best friend can't stop talking about sex. 1970's not for wimps-but neither was 1885...or 1945. So why does Bean keep sliding backwards in time?

Sandhill Stories: Life on the Prairie, 1850-1925
|
["Grant Flint"]
| 2 | 1 | null |
Prairie fires, sod houses, covered wagons, pioneer medicine.Cow chips, prairie dances, claim jumpers, mules, buggies, prairie schools.
Breaking horses, hay ticks, flowing wells, Fourth of July on the prairie, blizzards, pioneer schools ...
For a half century my mother told these stories, first to me, then to my children. Years ago, as we drove late at night on the return trip from Disneyland, she told story after story, the children wide-eyed awake. "Tell us another, Grandma," they urged. "One more story."
As the children grew older, we asked my mother to write down the stories, just as she told them, so we would always have them. Over the years, she did this, sending the stories as they occurred to her, along with her letters.
My mother's stories of the pioneer community on the prairie extend from the time of the Civil War, the first settlers, when life was not far removed from life a thousand years before, to the beginnings of "civilization": cars, radios, and bobbed hair.
Mother, born in a sod house, 108 years ago, lived to see men walk on the moon. Her stories allow us to see an earlier age -- a time, a way of life, many of us may view with nostalgia.

Tupamaros: El auge de la propaganda armada

["Rolando Sasso"]
| 0 | 0 | null |
Desde hace años, con paciencia y entusiasmo, el autor de La toma de Pando y Tupamaros, los comienzos viene realizando un trabajo de recopilación e investigación que ha logrado reunir los hechos y personajes más importantes así como las pequeñas acciones y personajes “anónimos” de la organización guerrillera que marcó a fuego la historia de nuestro país.
Rolando Sasso recrea, a través del relato de los directamente involucrados, los episodios del robo al Hotel San Rafael, la operación de expropiación de las libras de los Mailhos e informa qué pasó con ese dinero, los tiempos iniciales de convivencia en la clandestinidad, la “radio tupamara”, los primeros secuestros, la metodología de reclutamiento, las “columnas” fundadoras como forma de organización de la guerrilla.
Figuras conocidas como María Elia Topolansky, Jorge Manera Lluveras, David Cámpora, Julio Marenales, Ernesto Agazzi, Efraín Martínez Platero, Yessie Machi construyen este relato junto a una extensa constelación de militantes de lo que fuera el extendido mundo tupamaro.

The Lives of Others
|
["Neel Mukherjee"]
| 3.68 | 4,819 | 652 |
The aging patriarch and matriarch of the Ghosh family preside over their large household, made up of their five adult children and their respective children, unaware that beneath the barely ruffled surface of their lives the sands are shifting. Each set of family members occupies a floor of the home, in accordance to their standing within the family. Poisonous rivalries between sisters-in-law, destructive secrets, and the implosion of the family business threaten to unravel bonds of kinship as social unrest brews in greater Indian society. This is a moment of turbulence, of inevitable and unstoppable change: the chasm between the generations, and between those who have and those who have not, has never been wider. The eldest grandchild, Supratik, compelled by his idealism, becomes dangerously involved in extremist political activism—an action that further catalyzes the decay of the Ghosh home.
Ambitious, rich, and compassionate, The Lives of Others anatomizes the soul of a nation as it unfolds a family history, at the same time as it questions the nature of political action and the limits of empathy. It is a novel of unflinching power and emotional force.

The Dog Looks Happy Upside Down
|
["Meg Pokrass"]
| 4.43 | 28 | 2 |
Serious and witty, mystical and dark, these short stories by Meg Pokrass are small windows into another world, a world that is almost this one—but not quite. In her masterful pieces, Pokrass leads her readers on, page by page, enticing them with her beautiful and dream-like language. Bopping and slamming through these little stories like some genius world tour of the human heart, Pokrass gets a lot done in the shortest spaces imaginable. This collection of tiny, intimate truffles is as powerful as soul-chocolate infused with caffeine. Each of these 50 stories contains bite-sized glimpses into the lives of everyday people, leaving the reader with the long and lasting effects of a full-length novel. Each chapter delves into relevant life events that require further contemplation. Her language is supercharged and witty, with humor and sadness in approximately equal amounts, revealing the dark truth and reality of the world. The people in these stories need Meg Pokrass. Their lives are tough but her imagination is the fire-lasso that can save them, save us. In her work, off-kilter is the same as clear-eyed focus. Here, strange and normal go hand-in-hand, a marriage that explains nothing but makes so much clear. Time after time, these little stories read big. —Bob Hicok, author of Elegy Owed With The Dog Looks Happy Upside Down , Flash Fiction comes of age. — Bill Roorbach, author of The Remedy for Love and Life Among Giants Supercharged and witty, with humor and sadness in approximately equal amounts— Bobbie Ann Mason, author of Shiloh and Other Stories These sexy but wistful prose poems hint at entire constellations of affections, relationships at once sweet, sad, satisfying—and not. —Molly Peacock, author of The Second Blush Pokrass writes books you want on your nightstand to read not once, but again and again. —Nin Andrews, author of Why God Is A Woman I dare you to read a Meg Pokrass sentence and not want to read the next. Just enter that voice voice and it makes magic. It’s the kind where you don’t know where you’re going until you’ve left, but you know it was deeply right to have been there. Unassuming, ridiculous, insightful, dark.—Robert Shapard, editor of seven anthologies for W.W. Norton
including Sudden Fiction and Flash Fiction International

Boozing, Betting & Brawling: The Autobiography of Mel Sterland
|
["Mel Sterland"]
| 3.58 | 33 | 5 |
Boozing, Betting & Brawling is the autobiography of former footballer, Mel Sterland, who played for Sheffield Wednesday, Glasgow Rangers and Leeds United. He was also capped once by England. The book which is co-authored by Sheffield-based journalist, Nick Johnson, opens with Sterland recounting plans to commit suicide after being forced into premature retirement from playing. Following an indifferent start to his career at Sheffield Wednesday, Sterland made his name as a marauding full-back, playing under high-profile managerial trio Jack Charlton, Howard Wilkinson and Ron Atkinson. He made a big-money move to Glasgow Rangers, where he played under another well-known football personality, Graeme Souness. Despite being at Ibrox for only a brief spell, Sterland is fondly remembered by Rangers fans for scoring the goals which helped the Glasgow giants win the first of a record-equalling nine league titles. Following his transfer to Leeds, where he played alongside the likes of Eric Cantona and Gordon Strachan, Sterland won a First Division championship-winner's medal, making him one of only a handful of players to win the league title in both England and Scotland. Sterland's story features a heady mix of humour, gambling and punch-ups, and will have widespread appeal to football supporters. In the interests of authenticity, no attempt has been made to smooth off the rough edges, creating an honest, raw account.

["Catherine Flowers"]
| 3.9 | 10 | 4 |
After reconciling with her mother and grandmother, Tia Sparks has made a new life in Chicago with Lorenzo, her husband of thirteen years. Still, overcoming the trials and tribulations from her past has not prepared her for this latest set of disheartening challenges. Lorenzo has been harboring a secret for years and it’s threatening to physically destroy him. It’s turning him into a man that Tia no longer recognizes. With her frustrations continuing to mount, Tia makes a decision that she quickly finds herself regretting.
Serenity, their thirteen year old daughter, struggles to find her place amidst her own low self-esteem and the distance of her parents. With nowhere to turn, she makes an irrational choice that places her directly in the path of an unstable neighbor.
Soon all of them begin to realize the high price they must pay for their discontentment, and Lorenzo fights to relinquish the nightmare he's been holding onto.
With God all things are possible. But can each of them find redemption and deliverance before a marriage is destroyed and lives are changed forever?

KNIGHTSCARES #6
HUNT FOR HOLLOWDEEP
There Lurks a Dragon in Hollowdeep Where the Sun Fears to Shine.
For hundreds of years, the bleak valley of Hollowdeep has rotten beneath ash and smoke. For hundred of years, the dragon Shelolth has plotted terrible plans in the darkness. Into this wasteland Jasiah and his friends--Emily the archer, Daniel the rogue, Leland the dog, and Talon Wyvern--must go to recover the Dragonsbane Horn. Moaning ghosts, undead pirates, and their own worst fears pursue their every step. All the while, Shelolth prepares her troops for war.
The 8-book Knightscares series features many favorites from the epic fantasy genre. Encounter dragons, witches and wizards, goblins, swords and sorcery, centaurs, griffons, and dwarves. Oh, my! Readers will also meet a host of unique magical monsters and fantastic creatures found nowhere else. If Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Goosebumps were mixed in a cauldron and sprinkled with magic, the result would be the face-paced, kid-friendly Knightscares series.

The Depressed Backpacker: Recovering from Depression on the Camino de Santiago
|
["Benjamin Vickers"]
| 3.84 | 67 | 6 |
I expected churches, superfluities of reassuringly short nuns, and priests with foot-long beards. I expected beard envy. I didn’t expect to be surrounded by hot chicks in horribly attractive bikinis, sprawling on their bunks. This is my account of recovering from a depression caused by life events. My recovery occurred during a six-week backpacking trip along the Camino de Santiago – a popular pilgrimage and hiking route that extends 750 kilometres across the north of Spain. The environment of the Camino is like a toolkit for the mind, offering peaceful introspection, unique social interactions, measurable daily achievements and frequent new experiences. This book journals both my hike and my recovery, and will hopefully be of benefit to people with depression or social anxiety. Please note there is some (a lot of) strong language.

The Four Presidents
|
["L. Henry Dowell"]
| 5 | 2 | null |
Based upon a collection of true stories. What does it take to be The President of the United States? What kind of person? THE FOUR PRESIDENTS examines these questions as it looks at the lives and characters of four of the most colorful personalities to hold the office. Much of the dialogue comes from the Presidents' own words. THE FARMER WHO WOULD BE KING presents George Washington to the audience through his own words, and the words of his biographer Mason Locke Weems. Was the father of our country a simple farmer who answered the call of his countrymen, or was his destiny preordained? Or is the truth located somewhere in the middleground? THE GREAT EMANCIPATOR is the story of a simple man. Born in the wilds of Kentucky and mostly self taught, Abraham Lincoln would someday be regarded as the greatest American who ever lived. This play presents him as the storyteller he was. Complete with his Gettysburg Address. THE BULL MOOSE who occupied the White House 100 years ago was truly a man of action. Theodore Roosevelt was a father, author, rancher, sportsman, policeman, Rough Rider, cowboy, big game hunter, Governor of New York and eventually The President of the United States! He believed that power should be used to help the little man, and he practiced what he preached! NIXON AND THE GHOSTS is a surreal drama with dialogue ripped straight from the headlines. On the night before his resignation, Nixon ponders his rise and fall, as the shadows themself seem to come alive and he is confronted by the spirits of Presidents past!

Why? Because I have been where you are now and you’re going to need to know what to expect, how to react, how to defend yourself and how to cope with what might very well be the most difficult period of your life.

His words, like the little white sticks he smokes, spread like cancer - but tonight he has crossed over a boundry and brought himself under the unforgiving spotlight of a creature that polices the darkness. Tonight he will be tried and sentenced - and his punishment, like his words, will be extremely unpleasant.The words that hide a monster...reveal The Monster.

West of Your City
|
["William Stafford"]
| 4.67 | 3 | 1 |
Frederick Garber says of Stafford's first book of poems, West of Your City, "West is both Midwest and far West but it is always west of where we are. It is the place of nature and especially of nature's secrecy, that Otherness which we can touch at times." Earlier in the American Poetry Review article, Garber claims, "The long spaces which stretch ahead of us, compelling our half-willed entry into them; that curious Other, ... whose hiding-places and motivation are out in those long spaces and have to be sought for there—this is essential Stafford." Other critics explain that the Kansas-born poet and long-time Oregon resident uses western landscapes to address universal themes. New York Times Book Review contributor Ralph J. Mills, Jr., comments, "Of the Eastern states, of our swollen urban areas, [Stafford] does not write, though his work and attitudes say a good deal indirectly about contemporary modes of living that have lost touch with the earth and what it has to teach. He is a regional writer in the best, rather than the narrow sense: He uncovers and keeps alive strata of experience and knowledge that his readers are in grave danger of losing, and without which, Stafford keeps saying, they will forget how 'To walk anywhere in the world, to live / now, to speak, to breathe a harmless / breath.'"

Abu Samah Mohd Kassim: Pejuang Kiri Kemerdekaan Zuriat Datuk Bahaman
|
["Mohamed Salleh Lamry"]
| 3.8 | 5 | 1 |
Perjuangan Datuk Bahaman menentang penjajahan Inggeris di Pahang (1891-1895) banyak memberi ilham dan dorongan kepada generasi anak Pahang yang berikutnya dalam perjuangan menuntut kemerdekaan, selepas Perang Dunia Kedua. Malah, penglibatan mereka dalam perjuangan bersenjata, meskipun bersama PKM, boleh juga dilihat sebagai penyambung perjuangan Datuk Bahaman. Salah Seorang zuriat Datuk Bahaman yang terlibat secara aktif dalam perjuangan kemerdekaan ialah Abu Samah Mohd. Kassim, anak Pahang kelahiran mukim Semantan, Temerloh. Bermula sebagai pemimpin kecil dalam gerakan politik kiri (PKMM/API). Abu Samah kemudiannya menjadi salah seorang pemimpin utama dalam Rejimen Ke-10, Tentera Rakyat Malaya dan PKM. Perjuangannya berpanjangan lebih setengah abad, dari Pahang hingga ke Selatan Thailand. Meskipun dia mengkin kurang dikenali berbanding rakan seperjuangannya Rashid Maidin dan Abdullah CD, tetapi dia telah menyertai perang gerila menentang Ingeris sejak tahun 1948 dan telah menjadi Ahli Jawatankuasa Pusat PKM sejak tahun 1975. Oleh itu, buku biografinya ini akan menunjukkan bahawa dia adalah salah seorang pejuang kiri kemerdekaan yang penting dan patut diberi pengiktirafan.

Alle in Doros Familie sind hochbegabt – außer ihr selbst. Doro schwänzt lieber den Unterricht und fährt auf ihrem Einrad Elwood durch die Gegend. Doch dann greift sie zufällig in das Chemie-Experiment ihrer Mutter ein und erweckt einen Prinz zum Leben. Im Museum hat Doro das wunderbare Gemälde eines Prinzen gesehen und heimlich ein eingemaltes Haar geklaut. Das wirft sie daheim in die Ursuppe, an der ihre Mutter forscht und mit der sie – bislang vergeblich - nachweisen will, wie Leben entsteht. Doros heimlicher Nebenversuch ist erfolgreicher und es entsteht ein kleiner, ziemlich frecher Prinz. War das Zauberei? Oder doch Wissenschaft? Doro hat keine Ahnung und versteckt den Prinzen zunächst. Doch die Heimlichtuerei geht nicht lange gut, denn der Prinz mischt sich überall ein …

Manifiesto subnormal

["Manuel Vázquez Montalbán"]
| 3.46 | 13 | null |
En esta obra se introduce un ensamblaje de géneros y materiales que hacen de ella un libro peculiar: poesía, teatro, un ensayo (o, como diría el propio autor, un anti-ensayo), narrativa, publicidad, comunicación, dibujos, anagramas... No hay una lógica ni un orden. Simplemente hay literatura que anima a participar al lector. Una obra no está acabada hasta que el lector la lee, pero en este caso es necesaria la aportación del lector porque ello dirá si la obra ha funcionado. Se escribió en 1970, cuando el comercio se abre a Europa, entran nuevas formas de arte, nuevas concepciones, el realismo social pierde fuelle... Además, no hay que olvidar los hechos de mayo del 68, revolución de los estudiantes y las clases medias-bajas contra el poder y el sistema que Vázquez Montalbán ve imposible en España. Todo ello influye muy marcadamente en su obra: por un lado inserta esas nuevas formas de crear arte en su literatura, pero por otro muestra su frustración con el momento histórico que vive España. El capitalismo se está empezando a acomodar después de la dura posguerra.

The Rise of the Evangelicals: The birth of a movement that changed America
|
["Douglas A. Sweeney"]
| 4.33 | 3 | null |
The Evangelical movement has profoundly changed the American landscape. It is responsible in large measure for any growth Protestantism has enjoyed since the 1960s—for in the decades since, the mainline denominations have continued to wither while evangelical churches have held their own or blossomed. And this in a time when the nation has aggressively pushed for more secular laws (e.g. forbidding school prayer) and mores (in elite culture, evangelicals more than ever feel pressure to keep their religion to themselves). At the same time, evangelicals have become a part of the national political conversation in every election since the rise of the Religious Right in the 1980s.In short, you cannot understand contemporary American life unless you understand evangelicals. And you cannot understand evangelicals until you know a bit of their history. This eBook is a very brief introduction to the recent history. Evangelicals have been a topic of scholarly fascination for some decades now, so dozens of excellent books have been written about them. In this book, you’ll get a faithful and brief (if not thorough) rendering of their beginning and development.Table of Contents: Introduction Prologue: The Pre-Evangelicals Chapter 1: Harold John Ockenga: ‘America’s Hour Has Struck’ / Defining the Vision: Culturally Engaged Orthodoxy / Drawing the Line: Competing Theologies Chapter 2: Youth for Christ: Winning Over a New Generation / Fueled by Prayer: A Story of Personal Transformation at YFC / Evangelical Entrepreneurs: YFC and the Parachurch Phenomenon Chapter 3: Henrietta Mears: Rewriting Christian Education Chapter 4: Billy Graham: The Early Crusades Chapter 5: Awakening a Conscience for Social Justice Chapter 6: Invigorating Christian Scholarship Chapter 7: A Fraying Movement?

Reinventing Capitalism: How we broke Money and how we fix it, from inside and out
|
["Freeman Jon"]
| 4 | 1 | null |
Our financial systems are broken - not fit for purpose. The evolution of capitalism has stalled and no longer meets our human needs or the conditions that we face. When we examine how our relationship with money has evolved, we can see how the values and mindsets we held have become embedded in systems that are now poorly adapted to today's world. This book describes what is required now of the system and we who use it, in order to enable its redesign and rebuild. Our economic values, relationships and systems operate at several levels. They drive individual views and actions. They show up in our societal choices and political priorities. Our businesses and corporations function according to our perceptions of how ownership, engagement, commitment, benefit and purpose should be framed and governed. At the highest level we function in a global economy that reflects national interests, multinational corporate power, planetary ecology, global politics and macro-economic management principles. While it is obvious that these levels affect each other they are rarely viewed and addressed whole and entire. This is not a technical book and these themes are presented in everyday terms that we can all understand. Even so, the picture that emerges is comprehensive and while it is complex by nature, this step up to an overview level allows us to see the simplicity which emerges. Nor is this an exercise in theory. Its only function is to help us solve today's problems - to see how we find our way to stability, sustainability, fairness and functionality. Money was invented as a tool to serve us, to make our interactions easier. While the capitalist system has enabled more advances and material benefits than could have been imagined, it has not made humanity happier. Capitalism has been replaced by debtism. Money now drives our choices and decisions and has become our master rather than our servant. We have to balance Purpose, People, Planet, Profit, and Pleasure. We need to think in new ways and be supported by new systems. This will take a bigger conversation than has yet happened and the book sets out fresh ways of thinking and 36 practical goals affecting all of the levels discussed. Its purpose is to support and generate a more joined-up conversation than we have ever had. All of the jigsaw's many pieces exist already; now we need a table to put them on and a framework for joining them together. This book begins that construction and is intended as an invitation to the widest possible engagement in charting the steps that we all need to take. In a time of challenge to our social evolution, we have an opportunity to decide what kind of economic species we need to become. In a time of unremitting rain and rising seas it is offered as the outline design for an ark. Together we can make it into a blueprint. Together, we can build it.

Why the Bible?
|
["Mike Fabarez"]
| 4.73 | 22 | 1 |
The Bible claims to be a book that records the words and thoughts of God himself. That is a big claim. If that claim is true, it certainly explains why so many enthusiastically read its stories, religiously memorize its verses, and passionately proclaim its message. But if that assertion is not true, then scores of people have been profoundly misled, and perhaps should begin looking for divine wisdom elsewhere. In Why the Bible? Mike Fabarez explores the claim that the Bible is God's communication to mankind, and seeks to concisely answer the question of why millions of people through the centuries have put so much stock in this ancient book. Dr. Fabarez then goes on to provide practical direction for those who say they embrace the Bible's divine origins.

Psychologically Informed Physiotherapy: Embedding Psychosocial Perspectives Within Clinical Management
|
["Stuart Porter"]
| 3 | 2 | null |
Psychologically Informed Physiotherapy is a key new textbook for those who need a trusted and comprehensive resource to guide them in applying psychosocial perspectives to their physiotherapy practice.
The first of its kind, this textbook brings together an international and interdisciplinary team of leading experts in the field. Together they present an evidence-based range of ideas and concepts around the psychologically informed practice framework, bringing psychosocial aspects of physiotherapy to the fore alongside the established biomedical model. By applying these aspects to screening, exploration and triaging, physiotherapists are better able to identify the origins of pain and barriers to rehabilitation; and so are more likely to achieve consistently good clinical outcomes for their patients. Throughout, clinical case studies ensure that the theory is then grounded in a variety of practical scenarios after which some reflective exercises and clinically relevant scenarios reinforce learning and understanding.
Chapters on:
Psychology of professional identity in health care
The biopsychosocial model
Screening for red flags
Adapting interactions with others to form empowering relationships and influence behavioural change
Neuro-immune-endocrine interactions and clinical practice in stress, pain and recovery
Care of the anxious patient through cognitive and person-centred strategies
Alternative and evolving models of practice, including the clinical flag system
The psychology of the athlete from the physiotherapist's perspective
Using counselling and psychological strategies within physiotherapy
Making evidence-based decisions and measuring effectiveness in practice
Using psychological interventions as a student or new graduate
First textbook of its kind for physiotherapists
Ideal confidence booster for both students and practitioners new to the subject
Illustrates the role social factors have on thoughts, emotions and behaviour in patients as well as the neurobiological manifestations of social stressors
Presents key, evidence-based concepts from leading international academics, clinicians and researchers in the field and across a range of health professions, including counselling and psychology

The Suburban Captivity of the Church
|
["Tim Foster"]
| 4.42 | 12 | 2 |
For far too long, Australian evangelicals have proclaimed a gospel loaded with the cultural baggage of suburbia: personal security, individual salvation and an other-worldly focus. Is this message really a set of timeless truths with universal application? Or have we injected Jesus’ message with our own values?The Suburban Captivity of the Church calls us to venture beyond the picket fence and engage with the cultural narratives around us, to see how God’s big story meets them with both challenge and hope. Whether we are reaching a new culture, or trying to bring the gospel to our own in a more biblically faithful way, this book will equip us for the task.

The Gospel of Mary: A Fresh Translation and Holistic Approach
|
["Mark M. Mattison"]
| 4.34 | 115 | 10 |
Lost and forgotten for more than a thousand years, the only ancient Gospel named after a woman apostle emerged from the sands of Egypt just over a century ago. Originally written in Greek early in the second century and later translated into Coptic, Mary Magdalene’s Gospel comes to vivid life in this fresh translation with contemporary reflections on the ancient wisdom of this recovered treasure.Note on the cover artwork: The title format on the front cover is patterned after the inscription at the conclusion of the fifth-century Coptic text of the Gospel According to Mary.

The Mill Girls: Moving true stories of love and loss from inside Lancashire's cotton mills
|
["Tracy Johnson"]
| 4.07 | 540 | 17 |
'I dragged my heels all the way to the mill. ‘I can’t do it!’ I sulked. Mother sighed and shook her head. My heart sank. Of course, I’d seen the mill hundreds of times before, but now it was different – now, I was going in. I’d never seen a place so depressing; I wanted to cry.'With tales from hardworking Audrey and mischievous Maureen to high-spirited Doris and dedicated Marjorie, The Mill Girls is an evocative story of hardship and friendship from when cotton was still king. Through the eyes of these northern mill girls, we are offered a fascinating glimpse into the lives of ordinary women who rallied together, nattered over the beamers and, despite the difficult conditions, weaved, packed and laughed to keep the cotton mills spinning.

I saggi di Michel Butor su Proust e sul romanzo costituiscono luminoso esempio di quella critica degli scrittori che, nel suo complesso, si presenta come un capitolo significativo della riflessione sui testi letterari. Ripercorrere la «Recherche», esplorarne i temi e le strutture narrative, è per Butor l’occasione di interrogarsi sull’impiego del tempo praticato, con strategia articolata e fiammeggiante, nella più grande delle opere immaginarie descritte da Proust.

The Death & Life of an American Dog
|
["Ralph E. Vaughan"]
| 4.5 | 6 | 1 |
Over the years, the Three Dog Detective Agency has encountered injustice, cruelty and evil in a variety of forms, from gangs of feral cats and dogs to operators of illegal dog fighting rings, from rapacious animal enslavers of innocent household pets to a ferocious beast out of the immemorial past. But nothing prepared them for the vicious dogs of Afghanistan, fanatic soldiers of the mystical Dog at the Well, who departed their homeland on a mission of revenge and murder. Anila, a beautiful but evil Afghan Hound, used her pack to terrorize village dogs and force them to follow the Dog at the Well. In an instant, however, Anila is dishonored and the spiritual life of Afghanistan is threatened by a resurgence of the long-suppressed traditions of First Dog, the legendary being who came out of the darkness to lay by the campfire in primal times, and Anubis, the mythical teacher from ancient Egypt who taught dogs the ways of civilization and now guides them after passing. A quest for the restoration of Anila’s honor and a way to reestablish the sovereignty of the Dog of the Well has brought them to Chula Vista, seeking the death of an American dog whom they call Iblis. Wounded and traumatized, frightened and confused, their quarry will be an easy victim for the dogs of Afghanistan. Or he would have been if a plucky Pomeranian had not been out on patrol one day…

Newly returned Duke Caldwell is the son of her family's enemy—and everyone knows a Caldwell can't be trusted. Yet when Duke is thrown from his horse, Rose Bell puts her misgivings aside to help care for the handsome rancher. And soon there's no denying that her childhood nemesis isn't the scoundrel she thinks he is.
Duke keeps telling himself that his reasons for wanting to spend time with feisty Rose have to do only with ending their families' feud—and not with how captivating he finds her. But though Rose might be willing to mend fences with the enemy, could she ever believe Duke worthy of her love?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Current and Emerging Concepts
|
["Lubna Pal"]
| 3 | 1 | null |
Presenting an overview of the current understanding of the pathophysiology of PCOS and a paradigm for the clinical evaluation and management of the disorder, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is written in an easy to digest, concise format that, with bulleted key points introducing each chapter, is suitable for the trainee and the busy clinician. The breadth and depth of coverage of today’s queries and controversies will be of particular interest to the specialist and researcher. An international group of leading experts addresses the varied etiologies of PCOS, comprehensively covering the contemporary treatment approaches and long-term implications of PCOS, a common yet poorly understood disorder. Chapters on treatment will be of particular relevance to the clinician and the trainee as they cover conventional therapies, lifestyle, and diet, as well as address emerging strategies such as the use of statins and surgery in PCOS management.
Spanning the breadth of clinical presentations and morbidities related to the diagnosis of PCOS, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is an exceptional resource for primary care providers, gynecologists, reproductive endocrinologists, and others involved in the care of these patients, and provides the essential tools to aid clinicians in initiating a timely diagnostic workup and appropriate interventions to address both the immediate and long-term sequelae related to PCOS.

Caminhante, Não Há Caminho. Só Rastros
|
["Ana Cristina Colla"]
| 4 | 1 | null |
"Caminhante, Não Há Caminho. Só Rastros" se insere na tradição recente de contiguidade entre a prática e a teoria em arriscados processos de experimentação que propõem novos olhares e novas formas espetaculares, e o faz de modo tão único quanto o é cada experiência em si. Por meio de uma narrativa híbrida entre o protocolo rigoroso da atividade criativa e o passeio lírico de uma artista pelos vastos campos da linguagem escrita, Ana Cristina Colla narra aqui a aventura da atriz e do ser humano no processo de criação do espetáculo solo. A inversão do fluxo natural da vida, combinada com a imaginação e a memória, permitiu recriar o viver no tempo poético da cena, presentificando-o no palco por meio de técnicas de dança, da mimese corpórea e do butô. De seu percurso, a partir de elementos aí colhidos, a performer desenvolve a busca de outros significados latentes nessa sulcada relação memória-corpo. Trata-se de recuperar o sabor/saber vertido em palavras que se havia perdido no corpo sempre tendente à acomodação, ciente de que, como ressalta seu guia e companheiro de investigação, Tadashi Endo, “o corpo é o passado e mover-se significa ir em frente”.

Lilly älskar hästar. Hennes bästis Stina har blivit skötare på sin favorithäst. Lillys dröm är att också bli skötare. Eller att få ha en egen häst.
En dag kommer hästen Glimma till ridskolan. Hon har blivit vanskött av sin förra ägare och är rädd för alla. Trots att Glimma är tovig och mager har Lilly aldrig sett en så vacker häst. Det är något alldeles särskilt med henne. Lilly bestämmer sig för att vinna Glimmas förtroende!

Viver com Alzheimer
|
["José Luis Molinuevo"]
| 4.5 | 4 | null |
Este livro destina-se a servir de apoio a todas as pessoas que têm a seu cuidado familiares ou entes queridos que padecem da doença de Alzheimer. Ou seja, é uma obra destinada a todos aqueles que estão a viver um «luto em vida»: um luto, devido à sensação constante de perda que a progressão da doença causa; e «vivo» porque implica cuidar de uma pessoa que está em constante mudança.
A relação entre o paciente e o prestador de cuidados é sempre complexa e de difícil equilíbrio; quando o prestador de cuidados é um familiar, esta complexidade torna-se ainda maior. Viver com Alzheimer ajuda a compreender esta dinâmica e a criar uma relação mais equilibrada, potenciando as vantagens da intimidade criada entre ambos e ajudando a proteger a sua vulnerabilidade.
Ao longo destas páginas, encontrará esclarecimentos práticos e acessíveis acerca da natureza, da sintomatologia e da progressão da doença de Alzheimer. Este conhecimento permitir-lhe-á fazer uma gestão mais adequada das suas expectativas, comunicar de forma mais eficaz tanto com a pessoa afetada pela doença como com os restantes familiares ou amigos e, sobretudo, adquirir ferramentas para se adaptar da melhor maneira possível a uma realidade em constante mudança.

L’angoisse du poisson rouge
|
["Mélissa Verreault"]
| 3.65 | 138 | 17 |
Manue aime se faire croire que son existence, « digne d’un scénario hollywoodien », est catastrophique. Fabio, jeune Italien immigrant, ne se sent chez lui nulle part, car « lorsqu’on a choisi de quitter sa maison, elle nous devient à jamais interdite ». Leurs chemins se croisent alors que Manue recherche son poisson rouge mystérieusement disparu. Le récit de leur relation s’entremêle avec celui de Sergio, soldat de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, homme mort cent fois. Tous trois s’embarqueront dans une épopée improbable où les méduses détiennent la réponse aux questions existentielles, où les messages sont livrés par pigeon voyageur et où il est parfois nécessaire d’entrer par effraction dans sa propre demeure.
Ce roman choral embrasse l’idée que les êtres humains sont liés par des destins communs, donne faim et soif, creuse le passé et désigne l’avenir qu’il est encore permis d’espérer.

Pomon lumo – Bruce Springsteenin tarina
|
["Esa Mäkijärvi"]
| 2.71 | 7 | null |
Pomon lumo – Bruce Springsteenin tarina on ensimmäinen suomeksi kirjoitettu kirja poikkeuksellisesta muusikosta, jota sekä hänen faninsa että vihamiehensä kutsuvat Pomoksi.
Teos eroaa edukseen aiemmista Spingsteeniä käsittelevistä julkaisuista monipuolisen sisältönsä vuoksi: se ei ole elämäkerta, vaan esseistinen tietoteos, jossa tutustutaan Pomon ja hänen taustayhtyeensä E Street Bandin lisäksi populaarimusiikin ja Yhdysvaltojen historiaan.
Bruce Springsteen (s. 1949) on myynyt maailmanlaajuisesti yli 120 miljoonaa levyä ja saanut kymmenittäin musiikkialan palkintoja. Hänen albumeistaan ja singleistään monet ovat nousseet listojen kärkeen etenkin Yhdysvalloissa, missä hän nauttii eräänlaisesta vanhemman valtionmiehen maineesta.
Mutta miksi hän on niin suosittu ja mikä tekee hänestä merkittävän? Kylmät faktat eivät kerro koko totuutta tästä älykkäästä, karismaattisesta ja monimutkaisesta ihmisestä, joka vetää kuulijoita puoleensa ja saa heidät uskomaan itseensä.
